Description

Hosted by Action Against Hunger and UNICEF

What is our humanitarian imperative to reduce risks and not cause harm to communities affected by crisis? What are the linkages between nutrition programmes and risks of violence for women and girls? What does ‘safety’ mean in an environment of systemic violence for women in Vancouver’s Downtown Eastside?

Hear from practitioners on the frontlines who are providing dignified and safe services to women and girls in humanitarian emergencies and Vancouver. Network and movement-build with activists, service providers and policy specialists.

This event is hosted on behalf of the IASC GBV Guidelines Reference Group, an inter-agency, global initiative focused on mitigating the risks of gender-based violence across all sectors of humanitarian response. Action Against Hunger and UNICEF are Reference Group members.
